Class BigDecimalCurrencyConverter

  • public class BigDecimalCurrencyConverter
extends javafx.util.StringConverter<java.math.BigDecimal>
    A JavaFX StringConverter for BigDecimal values formatted as currency. Used with TextFormatter on price input fields to display values in currency format and parse user input back to BigDecimal.

    Formatting uses the system's default currency locale via NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(). Parsing strips all non-numeric characters (except decimal points) before converting.
